One Direction Australian Tour Dates Announced

Irish folk innovators Beoga will return to Australia in February 2026 for their first visit in more than a decade, performing headline shows, festival sets and joining their longtime collaborator Ed Sheeran for his national stadium tour.

Alt-rock veterans Garbage have confirmed the much-anticipated return to Australia and New Zealand, announcing four theatre shows in December 2025 in Auckland, Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney. These dates mark the band's first headline tour in Australia since 2016, and their first appearance in New Zealand's main centres in over a decade.

For more than three decades, Counting Crows have been one of the most distinctive and heartfelt voices in American rock. In 2026, Adam Duritz and company will return to Australia and New Zealand for The Complete Sweets! Tour.

Willie Watson, one of Americana's most distinct voices and a founding member of Old Crow Medicine Show, will return to Australia in March 2026 for a national tour presented by Love Police. The tour follows the release of his first full album of original material, the self-titled Willie Watson, released in September 2024 through Little Operation Records.

American post-hardcore veterans Thrice will return to Australia and New Zealand in 2026 for their first headline tour in nearly a decade. The tour will showcase music from their new album Horizons/West, the companion to 2021's Horizons/East, alongside a career-spanning set of fan favourites.

Genre-defying British rocker Yungblud will return to Australia in January 2026 for his biggest headline shows yet, as part of his global IDOLS World Tour. The tour announcement follows a year of record-breaking success, with Yungblud selling out his entire 24-date North American run in just one minute.

Finnish rock veterans The Rasmus have handed their outsider anthem Creatures Of Chaos a fresh shot of international muscle, enlisting Theory Of A Deadman frontman Tyler Connolly for a new version that pits two gravelly voices against each other in a bruising, sing-along chorus. The updated track arrives alongside a lyric video and follows the band's recent run of singles from their eleventh album Weirdo.
